Marvel's 'Avengers AI' Gets 8-bit Mega Man Inspired Variant Cover

So this is pretty neat.

Matthew Waite’s variant for the first issue of Avengers AI is a direct homage to classic 8-bit Mega Man sprites (with a Contra background, no less). Revealed on the official Marvel Tumblr, the cover depicts The Avengers -- striking a few familiar poses -- in a heated bout with Ultron robots. Click here to see the full piece.

Given the popularity of theme variant covers, Comic Book Resources speculates more 8-bit homages could be coming down the pike. Hey, no complaints here!

That's a Doombot that wants redemption. Avengers A.I. is a new title that will start after Ultron War that has Hank Pym, Vision, the Doombot, Victor Mancha (Ultron's son) and new characters Monica Chang(at least on the 616 universe, she alreday exists in the Ultimate line) and Alexis.
